How to Style Our Knotted Headbands: 3 Easy, Everyday Looks
Knotted headbands are one of the easiest ways to elevate your outfit, add personality to your hairstyle, and enjoy all-day comfort. Whether you love a bold statement or a simple, effortless vibe, our knotted headbands are designed to be worn your way.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through four simple styling options perfect for busy mornings, school runs, workdays, and weekends.
1. Knot at the Front – The Classic Statement Look
Wearing the knot at the front is the most iconic way to style a knotted headband. It adds a fun, stylish pop to your outfit without feeling over-the-top.
How to style it:
-
Gently stretch the headband and slide it over your head.
-
Position the knot right in the centre of your hairline or slightly off-centre for a playful twist.
-
Smooth your hair at the sides for a polished look, or leave soft waves and texture for a boho feel.
Best for:
Everyday outfits, brunch days, messy buns, waves, and curls.
2. Knot at the Back – A Smooth, Sleek Finish
If you love the comfort of a headband but prefer a minimal front view, try wearing the knot at the back. This instantly gives you a clean, smooth look across the front of your hair.
How to style it:
-
Place the headband over your head as normal.
-
Rotate the headband so the knot sits at the base of your head.
-
Adjust the front so it lies flat and neat.
-
Ideal for pairing with high ponytails or buns, because the back knot stays hidden underneath your hairstyle.
Best for:
Workdays, simple outfits, sleek styles, no-fuss hair days.
3. Half-Fold for a Thinner Headband – Light, Slim & Casual
For those days when you want just a hint of colour or pattern, folding the headband in half gives it a slimmer profile.
How to style it:
-
Lay the headband flat and fold it in half lengthways.
-
Smooth the edges together so the fold sits evenly.
-
Slide it on like a regular headband, adjusting the width until you get the thin, lightweight look you love.
-
This version also works great under headphones or hats.
Best for:
Hot days, workouts, short hairstyles, minimal layering.
